Build Your Complete Summer Hiking Outfit
A great summer hiking outfit starts from the legs up. Choose our stretch trousers for full coverage on exposed or overgrown routes, or switch to our lightweight shorts when the forecast promises sunshine. Up top, our summer tops wick sweat and dry fast, while a lightweight fleece or windbreaker earns its place in your pack for breezy summits. Everything is designed to work together, so building your perfect outfit takes minutes.
Built for Every Summer Day Out
Not every summer day out is a big hill day. Our range works just as well on a riverside stroll, a trip to the coast or a walk to the pub as it does on the trail. Lightweight, breathable fabrics keep you cool when the sun is out, and the four-way stretch moves with you all day. Designed by women, for women, so the fit works as hard as the fabric.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What should I wear hiking in summer?
For UK summer hiking, go for lightweight, breathable layers. Start with a moisture-wicking top, add stretch trousers or shorts to suit the terrain, and pack an extra layer for exposed summits. Skip cotton, which holds sweat and dries slowly. Every piece in our spring and summer range is built from quick-drying technical fabric for exactly these conditions.
Do your summer clothes protect against the sun?
Our technical weaves put a physical barrier between you and the sun's rays, unlike thin cotton styles. For long days on exposed ridges or coastal paths, full-length lightweight trousers and long-sleeve tops give more coverage than shorts and tees, without overheating.
What if the weather turns while I'm out?
British summers change fast. Our shower-resistant styles keep light showers off, and our packable layers add wind protection without weight. Check each product page for exact weather-resistance specifications before you head out.
